Although fairly interesting, it's very muddled and unfocused, and very biased. Lots of interviews with the press-side, hearing their opinions, but nothing but others footage from anyone else making for a very one sided argument. No matter who is right or wrong, it makes for a very biased film.
Sofia Coppola shows she stands out as her own talent separate from any family ties with a simple but brilliant romantic drama. It captures a non-sexual relationship, something most romances push to the forefront. Bill Murray delivers, as always, and Scarlett Johansson showed her future potential in a relatively early stage of her career.
The only real criticism is the heavy handedness of Japanese representations. Although it expertly surmises the feelings of loneliness when communications with locals is difficult, the people are often over-exaggerated and humour is made from their broken English.
